    I haven't completed a quilt yet.. but I did want to share one of my Mother's quilts.

    She passed away in 2004. This is the first time I've hung this quilt up and now I don't think it will ever come down.

    I just love it!

    I hope to one day be able to make something like this.

    Yesterday I unpacked her Featherweight.. it took me 6 years.. what a sweet little machine :)
